<p>My family would really prefer to have financial aid to come to Brown, but I do not wish for it to affect my chances of getting in… </p>
<p>So from what I heard Brown doesn’t consider financial need when evaluating international applicants until their financial aid budget is exhausted, after which they do consider need. </p>
<p>So if I apply Early Decision to Brown (It is my top choice), will that mean that their budget is less likely to have been exhausted when I apply compared to RD?</p>
